Abstract
A surface-treatment plant, particularly for galvanic treatments, includes at least one tank (3) for holding a bath (B) for treating pieces (P) to be treated by immersion therein, and a continuous conveyor device (5) having an active pass at least a portion of which is immersed in the tank (3) in order to move the pieces being treated from an end at which the pieces enter the bath to an end at which the pieces leave the bath.
Claims18
A surface-treatment plant comprising at least one tank for holding a treatment bath in which the pieces to be treated are to be immersed, a conveyor device having an active pass at least a portion of which is immersed in the at least one tank for moving the pieces being treated in the tank from an end at which the pieces enter the tank to an end at which the pieces leave the tank, a plurality of translating elements extending transverse the direction of advance of the active pass characterised in that said conveyor device comprises a flexible sheet element arranged over the translating elements, the sheet element being arranged relative to the tank in a manner such as to engage for sliding on the tops of the translating elements and to form respective loops between pairs of adjacent translating elements in the active portion of the conveyor device, the loops being able to house the pieces being treated, and the sheet element being restrained relative to the tank so as to cause the pieces to roll and to advance on top of the sheet element as a result of the advance of the translating elements of the conveyor device beneath the sheet element.
